Industry Range Day: LMT MARS-L and PDW | SHOT 2017

LMT introduced the MARS-L for the civilian market in the United States this year. The MARS-L is essentially the same model that has recently been adopted by the Armed Forces of New Zealand, but without the selector switch capability. LMT also showed off their PDW carbine as well. The PDW was introduced last year at SHOT 2016.

Infantry Marine, based in the Midwest. Specifically interested in small arms history, development, and usage within the MENA region and Central Asia. To that end, I run Silah Report, a website dedicated to analyzing small arms history and news out of MENA and Central Asia.

Please feel free to get in touch with me about something I can add to a post, an error I’ve made, or if you just want to talk guns. I can be reached at miles@tfb.tv

Being its an AR Lower there is probably very little difference between the 2 makers to begin with, apart from LMT using a combined bolt catch/release vs a straight release.
From memory, LMT make parts for Knights so its quite likely they would bare some resemblance.

Any word on MLOK from LMT? It’s the only missing piece in their puzzle. That and chrome on their enhanced AR15 carriers.
